Q & A
What is thermochemistry?
-Thermochemistry is the study of energy transfer in chemical reactions, typically measured as heat.
What is the difference between heat and temperature?
-Temperature measures the motion of molecules, such as how fast water molecules oscillate in a bomb calorimeter, while heat is the transfer of energy, like the energy released during an exothermic reaction.
Why is the specific heat capacity important in thermochemistry?
-Specific heat capacity is crucial because it determines how much heat is required to change the temperature of a substance. It varies between materials, affecting how efficiently they can be heated or cooled.
What units are used to measure temperature and heat in the context of this script?
-Temperature is measured in degrees Kelvin (K), and heat is measured in joules (J).
How is the heat equation formulated?
-The heat equation is formulated as Q = mcΔT, where Q is the total energy transfer, m is the mass of the material, c is the specific heat capacity, and ΔT is the change in temperature.
What is enthalpy of reaction?
-Enthalpy of reaction, ΔH, represents the change in energy during a chemical reaction, which is the difference between the energy of the products and the energy of the reactants.
How does the enthalpy of reaction relate to the stability of a compound?
-A compound with a negative enthalpy of formation is more stable than its constituent elements because it releases energy when formed, indicating a lower energy state.
What is the difference between an exothermic and an endothermic reaction?
-An exothermic reaction releases energy (ΔH is negative), while an endothermic reaction absorbs energy (ΔH is positive).
What is the significance of Hess's Law in thermochemistry?
-Hess's Law allows the calculation of the enthalpy change for a reaction by combining known thermochemical equations, even if the reaction does not occur in one step.
How is the enthalpy of formation used to determine the stability of a compound?
-The enthalpy of formation is used to determine the stability of a compound by comparing its energy content to that of its constituent elements. A negative enthalpy of formation indicates a more stable compound.
What is the enthalpy of combustion and how is it measured?
-The enthalpy of combustion is the energy released when one mole of a substance is burned in excess oxygen. It is measured as the heat released per mole of reactant.

🔥 Thermochemistry Basics
This paragraph introduces the concept of thermochemistry, focusing on the transfer of energy during chemical reactions, typically measured as heat. It distinguishes between heat and temperature, with the latter being the motion of molecules and the former being the transfer of energy. The script uses the example of a bomb calorimeter to explain how heat energy from a reaction can be transferred to water, causing its molecules to move faster. The measure of temperature is in Kelvin, and heat is measured in joules. The paragraph also covers specific heat, which varies by material, and how it impacts the amount of heat transferred. The heat equation is introduced, showing the relationship between the energy transfer (Q), specific heat, mass, and temperature change.
🌡 Understanding Heat Transfer
The script delves into the factors affecting heat transfer during reactions, which include the material's specific heat, mass, and the change in temperature. It explains that different materials have different specific heats, affecting how much energy is needed to change their temperature. The heat equation is expanded upon, showing how these factors combine to calculate the total energy transfer. The concept of enthalpy of reaction is introduced, which measures the change in energy between reactants and products. The script uses the example of hydrogen combustion to illustrate an exothermic reaction, where energy is released. The paragraph concludes with a discussion of thermochemical equations, which combine the chemical reaction with the energy change, and the concept of exothermic and endothermic reactions.
🔬 Enthalpy of Reaction and Formation
This section discusses the enthalpy of formation, which is the energy change when elements are combined to form a compound. It explains that the enthalpy of formation can indicate the stability of a compound, with more stable compounds having lower values. The script contrasts this with the enthalpy of combustion, which measures the energy released when a substance is ignited in the presence of oxygen. The paragraph also introduces Hess's Law, which is used to calculate the enthalpy of formation of methane from carbon and hydrogen. The process involves manipulating known thermochemical equations to find the desired reaction's enthalpy change, taking into account the direction of reactions and the coefficients of reactants and products.

Transcripts
all right so this video is going to be
dealing with chapter 16 section one
which is all about thermochemistry and
thermochemistry is basically about the
transfer of energy in chemical reactions
usually measured as heat and so as a
first uh sort of intro we're going to be
discussing the difference between heat
and temperature so temperature as we've
already studied is basically the motion
of molecules so if you have these water
molecules in this bomb calorimeter that
I'll explain later it's basically a
measure of how fast they oscillate back
and forth right whereas heat is defined
as the transfer of energy so if you were
to you know have some sort of fire or
some sort of exothermic reaction
releasing energy inside this bomb
calorimeter what it would do is that
energy would eventually transfer into
the water making these molecules move
faster and faster and then you can
measure the total energy
transferred that is how much energy was
created in here and then transferred to
the Water by how much heat is released
and as a quick clarification we're going
to be using uh degrees Kelvin for
measure of temperature which basically
equal de C plus
273 uh de and heat we're going to be
using kogs
or
calories moving on now we're going to be
discussing the concept of specific heat
and before we go into that we have to
discuss the factors that go into how
much heat is transferred during reaction
so the heat transfer depends on three
main things first is the material and
this is where specific heat comes in for
example it's much harder to heat up
water than it is to heat up iron and
that's due to different properties in
the two materials like how Iron is a
good conductor of heat it depends on the
Mass of material so for example it's a
lot easier to heat up 1 G of water than
1 kilog and the final thing is the total
change in temperature so if you're going
to heat something up by 100 Kelvin it's
going to take a lot less energy than if
you were to heat it up by 1 Kelvin now
this first Factor all depends on what is
known as the specific heat of the
material which is usually given by CP
the C meaning that at a constant
pressure it has a certain specific heat
and it's defined as the energy required
in jewels to heat up 1 G of
material by 1° Kelvin and for water that
number is
4.18
jewles per gam degree Kelvin bringing
all these factors together now we get
what's known as the heat equation which
basically says that Q the total energy
transfer
is equal to the specific heat of the
material times the total mass m of the
material times the total temperature
change so T and you'll notice that this
is in jewles per gam degree Kelvin this
is in grams and this is in kelvin so you
cancel out the grams and the Kelvin and
you get that the total energy change is
in fact in Jews so dimensionally it all
sense moving on now we're going to be
discussing what's known as the enthalpy
of reaction which basically gives the
change in energy that is the Delta h of
a reaction so it's how much energy the
products have stored in them minus how
much energy the reactants initially had
so if we look at uh the combustion of
hydrogen in the presence of oxygen down
here uh yes we can see what turns into
what but we don't really know how much
energy is produced and for that you have
to go over here to the product side
and if you've ever seen the reaction of
uh hydrogen in the presence of oxygen
you'll note that it's very violent it
releases a lot of heat a lot of sound
and a lot of light when you light it on
fire basically and that is all
contributing to this change in energy
over here now with this complete story
both the chemicals involved as well as
how much heat is transferred we get what
is known as a thermochemical equation in
other words Thermo meaning heat or
energy and chemical as in the chemicals
involved in the process it should be
noted as well that the energy released
over here is completely proportional to
how much goes into the reaction so if
you have four moles of hydrogen and 2
moles of oxygen in other words you
double how much you put into the
reaction you too have to double uh the
energy output over here so if you were
to react four moles of hydrogen in the
presence of two moles of oxygen you'd
release
9672 K rather than
4836 because this releases energy as a
product over here this is what is known
as an exothermic reaction so if you were
to reverse it in other words if you were
to take 2 moles of water and add
4836 K to the system through
electrolysis or what have you you could
decompose it into two moles of hydrogen
and a mole of oxygen and that would then
be an endothermic process because it
requires energy to take in usually
however you don't give the energy in
these blank spaces within the reaction
normally what you do is you just write
the reaction like I have right here and
then beside it you'll note the change in
energy the Delta H in other words so for
this the change in energy would be uh
4836 K because it released those 483
83.6 and likewise the Delta H for this
reaction the synthesis reaction the
endothermic one would be a positive
4836 so exothermic the Delta H is
negative and for
endothermic the Delta H is positive you
can think of it basically as how much
energy is going into the reaction so if
you put in energy as in an endothermic
reaction it's going to be positive if it
releases energy or you take out energy
it's going to be
negative so a good way to visualize uh
the difference between exothermic and
endothermic reactions is with what is
known as a reaction pathway so here we
have an exothermic reaction pathway in
which the reactants start with a high
amount of energy and then the reaction
takes place and they end up with this
low amount of energy and this transfer
from reactant two products is the Delta
H and as you can see it has a negative
value if we were to have it so
that the pathway went
upwards so up here you could
see here we start with the reactants
here we have the products the Delta H
would then be positive and that would be
of course an endothermic reaction moving
on now we're going to be discussing a
specific enthalpy PES of reaction for
example the enthalpy of
formation is defined as the specific
enthalpy of reaction for composition
reactions so when you take two elements
and synthesize some sort of compound
it's the enthalpy
change and this zero just means that
it's in its standard state so for at
room temperature and one atmosphere that
means that water is a liquid you know
oxygen is a gas Etc now this enthalpy of
formation is basically defined as the
energy required to synthesize one mole
of the material so why do we measure the
enthalpy of formation it's basically to
determine how stable a compound is in
its current state so Elements by
definition you know oxygen Etc
have a enthalpy of formation of zero
because nothing can form
uh an element so for all of them they
have no enthalpy of formation
essentially however some compounds are
significantly more stable than the
elements that comprise them for example
carbon dioxide has an enthalpy of
formation of
NE
393.7 K in other words when you uh
combust carbon in the presence of oxygen
to create carbon dioxide you release
this much energy in doing so likewise it
would take that much energy to
decompose carbon dioxide into its
constituent elements so carbon dioxide
is necessarily more stable than its
Elemental form and those with
positive uh enthalpies of formation so
when they're greater than zero tend to
be very unstable because they're already
above the energy equilibrium it just
takes a small thing to sort of tip them
over to the edge into rapid
decomposition our next special case is
is enthalpy of combustion and that is
basically defined as the energy released
when you ignite some sort of uh reactant
let's say hydrogen gas in the presence
of excess oxygen and because you have
all this excess it's hard to determine
exactly how much product you create so
the enthalpy of combustion is defined as
one mole or really the energy released
by the ignition of one mole of reactant
in the presentence of all that oxygen so
now we're going to do a practice problem
uh using hess's law to determine the
enthalpy of formation of a compound in
this case the enthalpy of formation of
methane from carbon and hydrogen and
there are two main rules you should know
first thing is that if you have all
these equations which uh involve the
various steps involved in creating
methane or using methane in the case of
this last combustion equation uh if you
reverse the direction of the equation
then you also change the sign so you
change from positive to negative Etc the
second thing is you can multiply the
coefficients of known equations to fit
um the steps
necessary to determine the enthalpy of
formation so in other words you see this
1/2 here in front of the oxygen you can
multiply all the coefficients in this
equation by two to make that a
102 so the biggest thing in figuring out
how to do one of these thermochem
equations is getting your products and
reactants on the right side in other
words you see how methane is over here
on the left side right now we need to
move it over onto the product side and
we can do that by changing the sign oh
that's originally supposed to be
negative by changing the sign of that
89.8 K to a positive sign
and then rewriting the equation
similarly because this oxygen is 1/2 we
can multiply all the coefficients by two
and simply double this number so now
having reversed this equation as is
shown down here at the bottom of the red
final equation and multiplied this all
through by two including the energy down
here we can then solve for the desired
reaction by canceling out the two sides
so if you see we have two o2s over here
and we can cross those out with O2 over
there on the product side we have a CO2
over here and a CO2 over here we can
eliminate and finally we have 2 H2O on
the left and 2 H2O on the right and from
here it's just a
matter of rewriting what we have left in
for the desired
reaction and adding up the total energy
that's over on this side so the Delta h
in standard form of
formation ends up being -
74.3 kles for methane
